Abstract：In recent years, China, Russia and the United States have respectively proposed their strategies concerning Central Asia. Russia and the United States seek to consolidate their position in Central Asia. In the Belt and Road Initiative, the Central Asian region has been incorporated into the “Silk Road Economic Belt”. The situation of strategic overlap and conflict among the three countries has thus been formed. Based on the power transition theory, a thorough analysis of the circumstance reveals that, after the Cold War, the Central Asian region has experienced three stages: power vacuum, competition between the US and Russia, and a scalene triangle relationship among China, Russia and the US, which objectively shaped the fact that the power is being transferred. Strategies of China, Russia and the US concerning this region have overlapped in various aspects, but it is quite different in both strategic intent and its implementation. Although China has no intention to participate in the Central Asian hegemony, the development of China's national strength and strategic vision will lead to the increase of Chinas power and influence in the region.
